Helpful Score: 5

This first novel of the series was great fun. I think somewhere along the line Maggie Hope may find out she is related to Maisie Dobbs. Like the Maisie series, Maggie is a protagonist enmeshed in the historic events of her time. I love how the men around her, locked into their traditionalist perspectives, repeatedly underestimate her. I also like how she questions her own emotions, making her a relatable heroine. Can't wait for more in the series.
